Lin Xueting's leg muscles tensed in an instant, and her right fist suddenly blasted out, directly aiming for Liu Chen's temple.
Her move was fierce and decisive.
Liu Chen didn't even lift his head, stretching out his left hand and easily blocking her delicate punch.
However, the force transmitted from that punch left Liu Chen slightly surprised.
"Liu Chen, what are you doing!"
At that moment, Qin Lu and Lin Xueting shouted in unison.
Qin Lu was angry, while Lin Xueting was both embarrassed and furious.
If her willpower hadn't been strong enough, she might not have had the strength to punch just now.
Hearing the roar of the two women, Liu Chen couldn't help but be momentarily stunned.
And it was then that he realized he had been somewhat presumptuous.
"Ah, that, er—
Qin Sister, Xueting, listen to me, I didn't mean it that way, sweat."
Liu Chen hurriedly said, his words filled with embarrassment.
"Not that meaning? I think that's exactly what you mean!
You bastard, how dare you try something on Xueting, I'll beat you to death."
With that, an angry Qin Lu stood up, swung her palm, and slapped it towards Liu Chen's face.
Seeing this, Liu Chen was so frustrated he wanted to cry, but this wasn't the time for explanations.
How could he explain if he didn't stop Qin Lu?
Thinking this, Liu Chen instinctively reached out his hand and grabbed Qin Lu's slender wrist. At the same time, he exerted strength in his palm, gently pulling and directly embracing Qin Lu's delicate body in his arms.
Qin Lu's body stiffened, her charming and alluring face turned crimson in a flash, as if it would drip blood!
The moment Liu Chen held Qin Lu in his arms, his expression changed—not excitement, but helplessness and a wry smile.
"As heaven is my witness, I really didn't do it on purpose!"
Liu Chen couldn't help but wail, while swiftly letting go of Qin Lu in his arms and quickly stepped back three to four meters, creating distance between himself and the two great beauties.
At this time, Qin Lu and Lin Xueting both blushed, looking at Liu Chen with a mixture of anger and alluring charm.
Logically speaking, this was a scene any man would want to see, or even possess, yet Liu Chen's mouth tasted bitter.
Looking at the blushing faces of the two women and the shame and anger in their beautiful eyes, Liu Chen explained with a bitter smile, "I said I didn't do it on purpose, do you believe me?"
"Don't believe!"
The two women said in unison, their words tinged with obvious anger.
"You might not believe me, but I still have to explain, otherwise I could jump into the Huangpu River and still not be able to clear my name.
Let's start with Xueting.
Xueting, your thigh was injured, kicked by someone's foot, and there's already a large bruise inside.
If we don't dissolve that clot of blood in time, it might affect your walking.
So, when I touched you, I wanted to use massage techniques to dissolve the bruise, I just didn't explain it clearly.
As for Qin Sister, you were too impulsive, and I had to act out of necessity, hence, hence I embraced you."
Looking at the angry and blushing faces of the two women, Liu Chen explained rapidly as if firing a machine gun.
He had to explain quickly; Liu Chen feared the women might do something else, leading to an even more embarrassing situation that would be harder to explain later on.
Hearing Liu Chen's explanation, Qin Lu paused, her beautiful eyes falling on Lin Xueting.
At that moment, Lin Xueting's face was crimson, but her eyes were filled with surprise.
Seeing this, Qin Lu knew she might have misunderstood Liu Chen, and she couldn't help feeling embarrassed.
"How did you know?"
Looking at Liu Chen, Lin Xueting spoke with incredible disbelief.
Her leg was indeed injured, there was indeed a bruise, and it was indeed caused by someone's kick!
But Liu Chen hadn't seen it, so how could he know? Could he have seen her competing with someone?
"Huh, just guessed.
If I'm not wrong, you must be a black market boxer."
Liu Chen said to Lin Xueting once again.
At these words, Lin Xueting's delicate body shook violently, and the surprise in her beautiful eyes turned into shock.
"Did you watch my match?"
Lin Xueting blurted out.
"No.
It's because you have several hidden injuries on your body, wounds that a girl should not have, yet you do, and every injury is on a vital area.
It's not difficult for me to guess your profession.
Only a black market boxer would have such injuries.
Another thing, just now your punches were decisive and ruthless, lethal, and even carried a hint of killing intent, which also confirmed my suspicions."
Liu Chen looked at Lin Xueting and spoke again.
As he spoke, Liu Chen couldn't help but silently thank the old man who had raised him for eighteen years and then suddenly disappeared.
Without him, there would be no Liu Chen of today, and all his skills were taught by that person.
Hearing Liu Chen's logical and as if firsthand explanation, Lin Xueting was completely shocked.
It took Lin Xueting a minute or two to recover, and then she spoke, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you just now."
"It's okay, mainly because I was too abrupt. If I hadn't been so abrupt, none of this would have happened. The one who should apologize is me," Liu Chen said hastily.
"Well, you can't be blamed either, after all, you wanted to help me."
As she said this, Lin Xueting's pretty face blushed slightly.
At her words, Liu Chen chuckled foolishly, not knowing how to continue the conversation.
"Alright, let's eat first, we can talk after the meal."
At this moment, Qin Lu suddenly spoke up, breaking the awkward silence in the air.
Upon hearing this, Liu Chen and Lin Xueting both nodded, and then the three of them sat down at the dining table and began to eat.
After the meal, the atmosphere among the three of them eased.
Once they finished eating, Qin Lu began to clean the table, and Lin Xueting also stood up to help, while Liu Chen, the man of the house, was completely ignored by the two beauties.
After the two women had finished tidying up the dishes, they returned to the living room.
Seeing them come back, Liu Chen was the first to speak, "Xueting, I suggest you shouldn't go for the time being.
The injury on your leg alone has a significant impact on you, especially your right fist, which must also have some hidden injuries. If you don't rest, it's not good for you and will only drag down your health."
Looking at Lin Xueting, Liu Chen said very earnestly.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xueting was stunned for a moment, then shook her head with a wry smile, "I can't, I must go, because I have my reasons that I must."
"Alright, I figured it would be like this.
If you trust me, let me help you."
Liu Chen said earnestly, his eyes as pure as crystal-clear water.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xueting hesitated, then nodded, "Okay."
"Alright, sit here and I'll check you over."
Liu Chen brought over a stool, and then spoke.
